CURRENT TRENDS IN THE RANKING OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

The paper is devoted to a review of the higher education institution's performance in the context of international rating studies. For the analysis of universities rankings such world ratings were used: QS World University Rankings, The Times Higher Education World University Rankings and QS Higher Education System Rankings. The methodology of the evaluating pro‑ cess of the performance of higher education institutions used in these ratings is presented. The paper analyzes the list of Ukrainian universities that have been ranked in the above-­mentioned international studies. It is concluded that the system of higher educa‑ tion in Ukraine is to some extent represented in the international market of educational services, but further development of this direction requires modernization of educational policy at the state level, as well as at the level of a separate university.
